Default Hard work does pay off!

After about a year and a half of saving every spare nickel, I'm at long last enjoying my very own s2k. An 05 with 6600 miles in rio yellow and I got it for $23800. It seems that a retired army officer bought his younger wife an s2k,element and an envoy. Apparently he was having some painting done and when he came home, he found his wife in the sack with the painter. OUCH! Well needless to say he traded in all three of them for whatever he could get and probably took a beating. I really feel bad for the guy, but I also feel like I got a good deal on the car! WHAT'S SAY THE REST OF YOU?

I say, "Why would he air all that dirty laundry to a stranger?"

Congrats, though I love my '05.

Yes, hard work does pay off. I got my 2001 after about 6 years of waiting. Definitely worth the effort and patience!

I would have to say that the work was easy in comparsion to convincing my wife that I needed the car. Luckily, she loves me. A lot.

I told my wife I would use my tax return to pay off her credit cards. There goes my hardtop! The finance manager told me about it while filling out the paperwork.
